5.0 out of 5 stars "Mirror, mirror on the wall....", Feb 3 2008
By Robert Morris (Dallas, Texas) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Strengthsfinder 2.0: From the Author of the Bestseller Wellbeing (Hardcover)

You will probably find no head-snapping revelations in this book if you have already read Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman's First, Break All the Rules and/or Buckingham and Donald O. Clifton's Now, Discover Your Strengths (especially the latter). Nor does Tom Rath claim to offer any. Rather, this is a new and upgraded edition of the Gallup organization's previous online test (StrengthsFinder 1.0) that enables those who take it to identify and measure their talents relative to "more than 5,000 new personalized Strengths Insights that we have discovered in recent years."

In Rath's two previously published books, How Full Is Your Bucket? co-authored with Donald O. Clifton and Vital Friends, he shares his own reactions to an abundance of research data which reveals the importance of two separate but related forces which have profound impact on the workplace: getting strengths in alignment with work to be done and then developing them even more with strategic delegation and close supervision.

What we have in this book, Strengths Finder 2.0, is a wealth of new research material that Rath examines with exceptional precision and uncommon eloquence. I strongly encourage each reader to take full advantage of the self-diagnostic opportunities that both Rath and the Gallup organization generously offer. Of course, once various exercises are completed, a significant challenge remains: to take effective and productive action to apply what has been learned. It is helpful to be aware of what Jeffrey Pfeffer and Robert I. Sutton so aptly characterize as the "knowing-doing" and "doing-knowing" gaps. It is also helpful to recall Peter Drucker's observation more than 40 years ago: "There is surely nothing quite so useless as doing with great efficiency what should not be done at all."

Presumably Rath agrees that, more often than not, the Yoda is right: "Do or do not. There is no try."

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent to motivate the whole team at work !, Aug 13 2009
This review is from: Strengthsfinder 2.0: From the Author of the Bestseller Wellbeing (Hardcover)
This book has a unique code that lets you do a 30-minute talent test on their web site. After, just print the report to have your top 5 talents, with recommandations to further develop your talents. You'll want to, then, consult the book to get more info. about your own talents. At work, we decided to all get this book, do the test, (including our boss), and we each created our yearly professional development plan based on our unique talents rather than our weaknesses. (This exercise can be done with or without a consultant). So much more motivational !

4.0 out of 5 stars Very insightful, Jan 20 2010
By markpang (Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Strengthsfinder 2.0: From the Author of the Bestseller Wellbeing (Hardcover)
This is a very insightful book. The strengthfinder test you can take online delves deep into what kind of character you are and the explanations in the book provide a great guideline as to what you should strive for. I look forward to putting this into practice with my life and work environment.
